1 Episode: Welcome back ( the beginning )

I entered my old room and exhaled the sweet smell of my room "Everything is in the exact order as I left it" I said to myself, my wolf was happy to be back from England to my homeland (California). My parents thought it would be a great opportunity for me to explore and study there but I think there is something else that I don't know.

"I should get some sleep before the celebration starts". Recently my father fought with his enemy and won so he was holding a victory party,of course I saw this as an opportunity and a reason to come back. My father is an alpha of the 'silver luna pack'. twenty years ago the black swan pack attacked us, they took our lands and some of our pack members to be their slaves. My grandfather was killed saving my father. From then my father's goal was to avenge his father and to take back what's ours. He was merely sixteen when all his alpha responsibilities came to him. He struggled every day to make our pack stable and stronger. And now he has accomplished his goal I can sense his wolf is at ease.

I was awakened by the sound of knocking on my door. I got up, half-awake, and open the door. " Geez, Leah this is not the time for snooze get up and get dressed". Hazel said in a rush. She is my older sister and my role model. She's strong, brave, and gorgeous. She's also my best friend whom I trust the most. " ok..ok you don't have to nag all the time " I said. " That's my job Lizzie as a big sis. ok no time for chit chat, get ready and come downstairs " she left after saying in a haste. I quickly slid my black 'body con' dress and lightly did my makeup, I left my brown hair open and scraped my stilettos.

There was a lot of gathering, I could sense different packs including royal pack as well. Ohh..did I mention that our pack was quite famous and one of the royalties. Those who have royal blood have a larger wolf and are ten times stronger than other wolves. There are six royal families, 'The Leon family, The Zack family, The Kingsley family and the other three are unknown, Only a few know them including my dad .

I saw my dad and mom chatting with guests or should I say, Alpha Leon, and luna Mathie. "Lizzie" as I heard my name from the familiar voice, I turned around and saw my brother running and hugging me. " Hey bro, long time no see, did you miss me" His name is Tristan and he is 3 years younger than me, "miss..you..huh, why would I miss you," he said while grinning. "oh..really!". "Yes, really but I am glad your back", as I could say anything a voice came from his back "Tristan ". It was Elijah the beta and best friend of dad. " hi Elijah, how are you doing" he pulled me in a hug and said, "I am fine what about you". "I am also fine" I replied, "sorry Lizzie but your father called Tristan, we'll catch up later".... " ohk I'll see you later"

I went to the backyard to get some fresh air. As there was a lot of gathering it was suffocating and I hate cramped and crowded places. I was sipping champagne from my glass and thinking about Damien, my childhood friend. " I wonder how he's doing!, Is he alright?" He was so sweet and kind towards me, the last time I saw him was five years back when uncle Zack died *his father*, he didn't even show up to say goodbye to me... I was just wondering about him, Then I turned around and saw Damien, his black hairs was down and he was wearing a black tux, he was looking flawless, He changed so much these past years but one thing was the same 'his dark blue eyes which I admired most about him since our childhood'. Our eyes met and I could feel a spark all over my body and only one thing was repeating in my mind ~mate~. It was hard to digest as my childhood best friend was my mate, he walked towards me and all I could hear was his and my heart beating promptly, the beating was almost as our hearts were the same.

And then he did the last thing I expect him to do. He grabbed my wrist tightly and said "Don't tell anyone that we're mates, and don't come near me from today own wards". and soon after saying these bitter and cold words he left me. The glass slipped from my hand and fell to the ground, it was shattered as my heart was. I fell to my knees and tears were rushing from my eyes. He was not the Damien I once knew and all I could think was being rejected by my mate, by my soulmate~
